The bar chart compares the amount of aid given to developing countries by six developed countries in three years (2008-2010). Overall, the USA stood out with the most contribution throughout the period, with the sharpest upward trajectory, while the opposite could be told of Sweden and the Netherlands, which showed the lowest rates. Another striking point can be that the remaining countries (the UK, Germany and Japan) contributed a relatively smaller amount of money compared to the USA.
Regarding the USA, it stood out as the all-time dominant, subsidizing developing countries with almost 21 billion dollars in the initial year. By 2009, the USA experienced a sharp decline, aiding 19 billion dollars. However, the US reached its chart high peak of 25 billion dollars in the following year, after a moderate rise.
In 2009, both Germany and Japan went down from their starting aid of 11 billion bucks to respective figures of 10 and 8 billion dollars, whereas the UK contributed approximately 12 billion dollars to foreign developing countries, which was nearly 4 billion dollars higher than its initial contribution. In the ultimate year, all three countries – the UK, Germany and Japan – underwent a notable increase, Japan bounced back to its starting amount, and the UK and Germany supported financially more than they did at the start, with 13 and 12 billion respectively. The Netherlands and Sweden both were much more passive supporters than other nations. In 2008, they both subsidized 6 billion dollars. Which was followed by an increase to 8 and 6 billion dollars. By 2010, both the Netherlands and Sweden experienced a dip in the amount of money, albeit with a big difference, ending up with 7 and 5 billion accordingly.
